My Mum and Dad went there a couple of years ago. I reminded my Mum to have a ride on the tramway, and they did. If I'd have known that it was cable worked I would have asked her to take some photos.

Again off topic, but my Mum is usually pretty good like that. They went on holiday to Moscow and Leningrad in the mid 1980's and I asked her to take some photo's of Russian trains for me. I did mention to her to aske the permission of the Intourist guide first (this was before the Wall came down). However, Mum being Mum didn't bother and simply took half a dozen snaps at Leningrad station. The guide saw her and went ballistic! Luckily, she believed my Mum's explanation and was allowed to keep the pics that she had taken, but was warned not to take anymore. I was pleased that they let her off, it would've cost a fortune to send a Mothers day card all the way to Siberia!
